Gagaku

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gagaku

Gagaku (literally "elegant music") is a type of Japanese classical music that has been performed at the Imperial court for several centuries. It consists of three primary bodies:

1. Native Shintoist religious music and folk songs and dance, called kuniburi no utamai

2. A Goguryeo and Manchurian form, called komagaku (named for Koma, one of the Three Kingdoms)

3. A Chinese and　South Asia form (specifically Tang Dynasty), called togaku.

Gagaku, like shomyo, employs the Yo scale, a pentatonic scale with ascending intervals of two, three, two, and two semitones between the five scale tones.

雅樂（高雅音樂）是一種日本古典音樂的類型，已完成的朝廷幾個世紀。它有三個主要機構：

本機神道教的宗教音樂和民族歌曲和舞蹈，叫kuniburi沒有utamai

阿高句麗和滿洲的形式，稱為komagaku（命名為救命，一三國）

阿中和南亞的形式（特別是唐朝），稱為togaku

雅樂，如稱名，採用了規模五聲音階與上升每隔兩，三，二，兩個半音5級之間的色調。
